Mule Description

The Mule
is an extremely intelligent, hardy working animal. It
has a counterpart that has the same genetic makeup,
but is smaller, called the Hinny. Mules have a notorious
reputation for being stubborn, but in actuality is very
intelligent. Mules have strong, independent personalities
and are very self-preserving. If they feel threatened,
they will refuse to remain in the situation. Mules that
have good training and trust will be loyal, sensible
and patient, however, it will also be jealous of your
interaction with other animals. Because Mules are so
intelligent, the are easy to train, but they are slow
to forget bad experiences and will have to be worked
with for a very long time to get it to do something
it feels might end in disaster. If a Mule feels threatened,
it will not hesitate to kick with swiftness and accuracy.
Mules are strong, very hardy, sure-footed animals. They
have incredible stamina and can do hard work for long
periods of time, provided they can be persuaded to do
so. Mules have horse-like bodies with donkey-like limbs.
Hinnies are smaller than mules and have donkey-like
bodies and horse-like limbs. They also tend to be less
hardy and less intelligent. Mules have very long ears
like donkeys and their thin manes are very short or
shorter than those of a horse. Their tails are a bit
shorter than a horses tail, but do have a few long strands
in them. Mules have flat backs, low withers, and goose
rumps. Mules will often be taller than both of their
parents, but their bodies are narrower than horses'
bodies and less deep chested. Their sides are flat and
their quarters appear weaker than a horses'. Their hooves
are small and hard. Mules are extremely healthy, disease
resistant, and are rarely injured because of their intelligence.
Mules can withstand a wide variety of temperatures and
can live on less feed than horses.
